All dolphinaria must be closed in Europe !

Why this is important

In the wild, dolphins and whales have highly complex social lives which cannot be recreated in captivity. Captivity severely compromises a whale or dolphin’s quality of life. Europe must ban dolphinaria.

Dolphins possess highly sophisticated cognitive, social and emotional abilities. We don’t have the right to keep these creatures in captivity to satisfy our economic needs. Their detention violates the Directive 1999/22/EC of the Council of Europe, because no chlorinated pool, no lagoon, no matter how large they are, could replace the ocean nor reproduce the complex social life of wild cetaceans. We ask the EU to ban the captivity of small whales. We demand the shutting down of all dolphinaria in the EU and that dolphins, belugas and orcas, born free or captive, integrate marine sanctuaries and, when possible, join rehabilitation programs.
